Sport is more interesting than the tabloids and TV suggest. Sport Matters is an engaging anthology of photocopiable materials for promoting discussion among pupils at key stages 34. There are thoughtful and controversial newspaper articles, telling tables of figures and quirky cartoons. The issues covered include attitudes to success and competition, the role of disabled athletes, drugs, racism and the sporting marriage between money and the media. Sacked football managers take their place beside aggressive cricketers, women rugby players and French cycling fans in a stimulating investigation behind the headlines. Sport Matters costs pound;14.95 (15 or more copies pound;4.95 each) from Carel Press.
